'''19712/19683''', the '''symbiotic comma''', also known as the '''symbiosis''' or '''symbiosma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[11-limit]] (specifically [[2.3.7.11 subgroup]]) [[comma]] measuring about 2.55 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between an [[2187/2048|apotome (2187/2048)]] and an [[77/72|undecimal secor (77/72)]] – the latter of which can be broken down into a quartertone of [[33/32]] stacked on top of a third-tone of [[28/27]]. It is also the difference between a [[septischisma]] and a [[olympia]].  
'''19712/19683''', the '''symbiotic comma''', also known as the '''symbiosis''' or '''symbiosma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[11-limit]] (specifically [[2.3.7.11 subgroup]]) [[comma]] measuring about 2.55 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between a [[2187/2048|Pythagorean apotome (2187/2048)]] and an [[77/72|undecimal secor (77/72)]] – the latter of which can be broken down into a quartertone of [[33/32]] stacked on top of a third-tone of [[28/27]].  


It factors into the following commas:
In terms of other commas, it is the difference between a [[septischisma]] and an [[olympia]]. It is also the sum of an [[argyria]] and an olympia, as well as the sum of a [[quartisma]] and a [[nexus comma]]. In the full 11-limit, it factors into simpler commas as ([[4375/4374]])⋅([[5632/5625]]), and in the 19-limit, ([[1216/1215]])⋅([[1540/1539]]).

[[Tempering out]] this comma in the 11-limit results in the rank-4 '''symbiotic''' temperament (→ [[Rank-4 temperament #Symbiotic (19712/19683)]]), or in the 2.3.7.11 subgroup, the '''symbiotian''' temperament. In either case, it identifies [[11/8]] by an apotome over [[9/7]], [[11/6]] by an apotome over [[12/7]], and [[11/9]] by an apotome over [[8/7]]. Finally, it identifies 11/9 by a [[256/243|limma]] below 9/7.

In either case, 28/27 and 33/32 become apotome complements, and [[11/8]] is identified with an apotome over [[9/7]], [[11/6]] with an apotome over [[12/7]], and [[11/9]] with an apotome over [[8/7]]. Finally, 11/9 is identified with a [[256/243|limma]] below 9/7.
